Chapter Fifty-Seven: Swimming in Fish and Dragons
"The place he is in charge of is very rich in oil and water."
The others were stunned by this, but they soon burst into laughter.
"Yes, the strength is not enough, you can pay for it."
"Let's talk about it first, that mud leg has to pay at least fifty percent of the money, and I am willing to shelter him."
"Fifty percent is not good, without our help, he will definitely not be able to keep that bazaar, I think it is more appropriate for us to take seventy percent."
"I agree with Brother Xu."
"That's seventy percent."
In a few words, several people set a tax limit for Zhong Chao.
At this moment, Zhong Chao, who knew nothing, was browsing the group of books in the Scripture Pavilion.
Because he had a clear goal - water warfare, this time, Zhong Chao's exercise was chosen quickly.
Only three minutes after entering the Scripture Pavilion, he found the only two high-level exercises in the Scripture Pavilion.
"Turning the River and Turning the Sea Stick" and "Fish and Dragon Swimming"
The former is the law of water warfare, and the latter is the method of water warfare.
Without much hesitation, Zhong Chao took the fish dragon swim in his hand.
"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, run fast, better than anything else."
Holding the exercises in his hand and skimming them roughly, Zhong Chao left the Scripture Pavilion with the exercises.
This is also the right of the hall owner to name his disciples.
On the way back, Zhong Chao thought about some of the situations he had just watched, and the more he thought about it, the more satisfied his expression became.
"Fish and dragon swimming, this skill is cultivated to a high depth, not only will I have a sensitive posture like a fish dragon, but also make my skin smooth."
Smooth skin is not for beauty, but to reduce the friction between Zhong Chao's body surface and all things.
As we all know, speed is closely related to wind and friction, the faster the speed, the greater the resistance of the wind, and reducing friction is to reduce wind resistance, which is also a disguised increase in the speed of Zhong Chao.
"No, not only the wind, but also the water has resistance, and it is greater than the wind, and the smooth skin can make me feel like a fish in the water."
Zhong Chao likes the special effects of the exercises of the fish and dragon swim very much, but the high-level exercises have special effects that are beyond common sense, but they also need some special substances to assist in cultivation, and this kind of material cannot be missing.
The same is true for Ichthyosaurus, which is recorded in the cheats book that cultivating this skill requires a kind of silver light fish ointment.
There is no way to make silver fish ointment on the cheats, but fortunately, it is written that some rouge shops will sell this ointment.
"Huh? Wait a minute? Why is it not a pharmacy, but a rouge shop? β
Before Zhong Chao could figure out why the ointment of martial arts was associated with rouge, he came to the door of his house and saw a tall man waiting.
"You are?"
"Shi Qiang, I'm the captain of Yishun and them."
"Yishun? You're here to invite me to join your team? β
Thinking of what Yi Shun had done before, Zhong Chao's brows furrowed.
In this regard, Shi Qiang waved his hand again and again: "No, no, no, my team can't tolerate you, a Tianjiao." β
Shi Qiang, who said this, was not teasing, he really thought so.
Like Zhong Chao, he also grew up as a miscellaneous disciple.
Because of his tenacity and talent, he grew up in the martial arts hall.
And because of his kindness and reasonableness, in the process of growing up step by step, he accepted some teammates and formed a team together, ready to join the group for warmth.
And Zhong Chao was originally his internal team member.
The first few times, Yi Shun came to remind him, and he gave some orders.
It's just that he thought that Zhong Chao's talent was very high, but he didn't think it was so high.
In his opinion, even if Zhong Chao is talented, it will take two or three months to complete the skin training.
And when you first enter the skin training, it is impossible to withstand the blows of the second order of martial arts.
Therefore, he thought that he had two or three months to make Zhong Chao realize the cruelty of the martial arts hall and pull him into the team.
But what happened next was completely unexpected.
After a failed skin practice, Zhong Chao was able to resist the beating of the rich children, which he didn't expect.
What made him even more horrified was that after the success of the skin training, ordinary second-order martial artists had no threat to him.
A few days ago, Zhong Chao defeated the disciples of the Blue Feather Sword Pavilion in a row, which made his eyes almost pop out.
"Growing to such a point in a month, how did he cultivate?"
sighed in his heart, and he quickly said the matter.
"It's Qi Weiye who is looking for you this time, I'm just a messenger, the reason why he is looking for you is ......"
After talking about the top disciples, Zhong Chao pondered for a while, then nodded in agreement:
"The master is still there, those people shouldn't go too far, but this is really a trouble, and the idea of teaming up to fight is good."
"Wait a minute, I'll come out here."
After hiding the exercises of fish and dragon swimming in the small courtyard and telling the two maids, Zhong Chao brought some silver taels and followed Shi Qiang to the outside of the martial arts hall.
This time, the two went straight into the inner city.
After browsing the bustling inner city, the two finally stopped at the door of the Xijia Restaurant.
"It's actually here?"
Surprised, Zhong Chao followed Shi Qiang into the restaurant.
Xijia Restaurant is very large, with seven floors, and each floor has an entry threshold.
The hall on the first floor is fine with the second floor, and since the third floor, there are certain requirements for status.
The location where Senior Brother Qi was located was a box on the second floor, and after turning in, Zhong Chao found that this place had already eaten, and the people here were not only the children of the martial arts hall as Zhong Chao thought, but also some businessmen dressed as shopkeepers, and a few beautiful girls who came with them.
This scene also made Zhong Chao stunned:
"What's going on? Didn't you say that you were going to discuss against Senior Brother Huang and them? Why are there outsiders. β
Hearing Zhong Chao's doubts, Shi Qiang smiled:
"Senior Brother Zhong, they are not outsiders...... Now we are not alone, each of us has his own power, and it is necessary to call the merchants under his rule to gather and unite the front, and I suggest you go back and do the same. β
After saying that, he thought of something, and he smiled:
"And this gathering should be more than just a joint operation...... You've also heard some rumors in the martial arts hall that after becoming a silver disciple, not only will your status improve, but also the rich families in the city will come over to get married. Those who came with their daughters should have done so on purpose. β
ββ¦β¦β
These words made Zhong Chao speechless, but he also understood that this was not a rumor, but a fact.
And the reason why those rich families are looking for martial arts hall disciples to marry is also for a reason.
ββAfter going out to the martial arts hall and visiting Jujiang City for two days, Zhong Chao felt the most that in Jujiang City, the most important thing in doing business was never business ability, but strength and backing.
The latter is not strong, the stronger your business ability, the faster you will die.
Such a business environment forces those merchants to only find backers, and it is not enough to simply find big backers.
The King Kong Martial Arts Pavilion accepted the surrender of these people, but the owner of the pavilion was not a modern government, and he would prevent other gangsters from entering his sphere of influence, but he had no heart to supervise his subordinate disciples one by one, which made many disciples add a draw to the martial arts hall.
Although these disciples didn't dare to make a big fuss, the already serious taxes, coupled with one or two commissions, made it difficult for many merchants.
In this case, in order to survive, or better competition, some merchants will take the initiative to marry their daughters and combine with the children of the martial arts.
In this way, the former was guaranteed to be forced, and the latter was blessed with beauty and wealth.
'Money and power trading in the fantasy world. β
